about the symposium

On the occasion of 300th anniversary of the birth of Ruđer Josip Bošković, one of the greatest and most famous Croatian philosophers and scientists, Croatian Parliament proclaimed Year of 2011, The Year of the Ruđer Bošković in Croatia.

To commemorate this great figure, who placed Croatia and Dubrovnik on the European scientific map two centuries ago, the Ruđer Bošković Institute, City of Dubrovnik and Diocesan Secondary School Ruđer Bošković in Dubrovnik (formerly Jesuit Collegium Ragusinum attended by young Bošković), have organized an international scientific symposium, From Ruđer Bošković to Today: Contribution of Croatian Scientists to the World Scientific Heritage. Symposium will be held in Dubrovnik from May 29 to June 2, 2011, under the auspices of the President of the Republic of Croatia, Professor Ivo Josipović, and the Prime Minister of the Republic of Croatia, Ms. Jadranka Kosor.

The Opening Ceremonies of the symposium will be held in Dubrovnik on May 29, 2011, starting at 8:30 p.m., where a number of cultural programs will help conjure the atmosphere of Bošković's 18th-century Dubrovnik.
